I love this treatment...I use it by stuffing it into my nose, the nostril on the same side as the pain. Also, rubbing it on the outside of the nostril and on the forehead near the pain.
Some people have theories about why this works, but all I know is that it is 85% effective in clinical studies according to a Reader's Digest report.
And for me it is probably at least 85% effective.
But, I can't get most people to try it for some reason.
